Saturday night the Toppers
faced the Tri-City Tornadoes in what was a close game until the very
end. With 7.8 seconds remaining, Tri-City's Scott Fishburn sank two
free throws to put the Tornadoes on top 50-48. That would be the
final score.
Once again Brady Thomas led
the Toppers in scoring, with 22 points. Michael Lowery chipped in 10,
and Matthew Amidon added six.
The Toppers' record is now even
